Come, take a step back in time to the first half of the last century and ride a train like your grandparents may have ridden. Board our 1920's era passenger coach, or our open-air excursion car and take a ride behind our 1950's diesel locomotive through Old Towne Belton, Missouri and the surrounding area. You could even ride in the cab of the locomotive with the engineer.

While you're waiting for the train, walk around our yard and look at our display equipment, freight cars, Club Car, instruction car, maintenance-of-way equipment, and two static display steam locomotives. Visit our baggage car gift shop, talk to the train crew, and even visit the locomotive. Finish off your trip with a visit to the shops of Main Street Belton.

While you're enjoying your train ride with us, you might also learn about the History of our Line

Our passenger coach holds 60 passengers. If all seats sell out and there are enough passengers still wishing to ride the train, extra departures will be added. We can accept credit/debit cards for on-line ticket sales however we are only able to accept cash and checks in the depot the day of the ride. Our train is neither heated nor air conditioned, we suggest you dress for the weather on the day of your visit.

Locomotive Rides
Ride up in the Locomotive with the engineer and see how the train is operated. Tickets for the Locomotive are $25 each for regular departures.
Due to space restrictions only two passengers can ride in the locomotive.
Tickets for the Locomotive tend to sell out early. Consider buying locomotive tickets in advance on-line
